A U.S. senator from New Hampshire has offered an amendment that would halt proposed changes to federal hours-of-service rules for commercial drivers. Sen. Kelly Ayotte, R-NH, proposed the amendment to a 2012 federal spending bill that is being debated this week.

The Ayotte amendment to HR2112 would ensure that none of the funds be used to finalize, enforce or implement the hours-of-service regulations proposed by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration on December 29, 2010.

Among the proposed changes to HOS rules, FMCSA wants to limit commercial driving time to 10 hours in a 13-hour window and restructure the 34-hour restart. Current rules allow 11 hours of driving in a 14-hour window.
